• Every digit from 1 to 9 appears once in every row, column, and region. 9 regions are to be determined. Every region is a set of 9 orthogonally connected cells.
• Arrows indicate X-Region Sum Lines, where the first seen digit in the respective row or column is the start and length of a straight Region Sum Line, which passes through at least 2 regions, where each line segment in each region sums to the same amount. Digits immediately after the end of a line are in separate regions.
• Arrows also indicate X-Regions, where the first seen digit in the respective row or column is the total number of regions seen in that direction. Regions never re-enter the line of sight of the arrow.
Here's an example to demonstrate the rules:
Hope you enjoy! 😄 - Any feedback or comments welcome!
Solution code: Row 7 (left to right) with dashes for region borders. (e.g. 123-4-56-789)

Glad you enjoyed it deltameth, and thanks for playing! Just for future solvers though, bifurcation is not required.

I am surprised to see 0 solves. This a wonderful puzzle with interesting logic bits. It deserves more attention. I got stuck at some point but a little of bifurcation helped. Fair 4*.
